You can hear some “ding ding” water sound from the holes on the wood.

余志屋（Yoshiya)
Dinner. Menu: 1, 2.
飯だこ煮。
Simmered Iidako(octopus). Very soft!

焼き茄子のゴマだれ。 野菜あんかけ。
Grilled aubergine in sesame sauce. Vegetables in ankake(starchy sauce). The Japanese starchy sauce is not oily and completely drinkable, unlike the chinese kind. Apparently it is very common Kyoto cooking style in winter because the thick starch sauce keeps the food warm.

鴨まんじゅう。
Duck manju.

釜めし：えび、とり、竹の子、他。
This place is famous for its kamameshi(From Wikipedia: a traditional Japanese rice dish cooked in an iron pot with various kinds of meat, seafood, and vegetables). This one has prawn, chicken, bamboo shoot and other stuff.

All the food are very good. Traditional Kyoto winter food that really warms you up. We only had tea and no alcohol with the meal and it was 10,000yen for 3 people.
